De: Ana Huang

Narrado por: James Cavenaugh, Samantha Brentmoor

He has to play by the rules...but for her, he'd break them all.

As the captain of Blackcastle Football Club and one of the highest-paid athletes in the game, Vincent DuBois should be on top of the world.

But when his fame brings danger to his doorstep, he finds himself in a nightmare scenario―sharing a flat with his coach's daughter, knowing full well she's far too big a temptation for him to resist.

When his new living arrangements escalate into a bet that throws them even closer together, he realizes he's in deeper trouble than he thought.

He's always played to win―but for her, he might just risk it all.

***

As a sports nutritionist and the daughter of a legendary coach, Brooklyn Armstrong is used to dealing with hotshot athletes.

However, no player gets under her skin like Vincent, her best friend's infuriatingly cocky (and gorgeous) brother. She left California hoping for a fresh start, and he's the kind of distraction she doesn't need.

Now, he's sleeping in the room next to hers while her career is up in the air and her defenses are crumbling.

But no matter how many sparks fly between them, a relationship between the captain and the coach's daughter could never work…could it?

So good!

I have not stopped listening to this book! Brooklyn is fun and spunky and just trying to find her way. Vincent is captain of England’s premiere football team and definitely cocky but you know what they say about opposites attracting it makes for a delicious book add and it’s her best friend‘s brother and it gets even better.

Wonderful

This, like all Ana Huang books, was a fantastic love story. It had drama, push and pull between characters, and a romance for the ages.
The narrators did a phenomenal job and fit the characters perfectly.

Fighting the attraction always sucks a reader in

This was better than I anticipated. When I read the striker I did Not like Vincent’s character at all. I’m glad I didnt Let that opinion taint me reading this one because it was enjoyable. I loved The suspense in this story and the the relationship between Brooklyn and Vincent was so fun to read. I was Convinced I knew Who the villain was and was totally fooled when it was revealed.

The banter and push and pull between Brooklyn and Vincent made the story! They both fought their attraction for so long it was almost comical. I felt So much for Brooklyn and her family dynamic. She always felt so unwanted and finally found someone who made her world theirs. She needed that. The story was great and it truly set up the keeper well. I cannot Wait for that story now that I know who the FMC will be. It seems like it’ll be a wild ride!

Wow! An incredible listen!

I love Samantha Brentmoor with a fiery passion. She brings a sassy heroine to life in the best way. I am new to James Cavenaugh, but I was absolutely blown away! His accents were flawless, his tone was on point, and he brought the exact amount of emotion to every word. I am now a forever fan!

Ana Huang brought her A-Game with this one. The story was tense and the payoff was incredible.

Spicy

The spicy scenes were amazing, I think the best she has written so far.
Great story line. I was guessing the stalker throughout the whole story.
